We are a 70-something USA mother and son, and Jing's apartment worked wonderfully for us.

We got off to a smooth start with Jing's address instructions in both English and Thai allowing the taxi driver to find the place, and the 24-hour apartment guard expecting us and simply giving us the keys as soon as we identified ourselves. In other AirBnb places the initial locate/meet/entry has sometimes been VERY difficult and time-consuming.

The place is exactly as pictured. While not pictured, the kitchen is very well equipped and functional. Hot pot for tea/coffee water, toaster oven, full-sized refrigerator, 4 burner stove and a good range of both dishes and cooking utensils. The washing machine works very well.

It really is only a 7 minute walk to the Ari Station BTS SkyTrain, and from there one can get most places in inner Bangkok very quickly. We purchased 15 ride cards apiece, and used them up for our week stay. We did learn that there actually are several different lines, although Ari is on the main one. To go to the extreme ends of our card line required a little bit more money, and the other lines required different tickets. The Metro line gets one to Chinatown. We also supplemented with the more adventurous bus rides.

Street food is wonderful in Bangkok. We loved it. The offerings right along the walk from Ari station to the apartment are particularly good right now with the construction of a major skyscraper going on. Hundreds of construction workers are currently working on the building and providing great business for the food vendors. We figured the food from the carts was mostly for them and therefore more authentic that what one might find in more touristy areas.

The apartment is very open and spacious. There are 3 air conditioners, one in each bedroom and one in the main living area. Each is very functional and plenty powerful for warm Bangkok. But quiet enough for sleeping.

We both enjoyed Health Land Thai massages, and Thai cooking lessons at the Silom Thai Cooking School.

Jing's apartment provided a great base for a wonderful visit to Bangkok. We wished we had lots more time there.
